Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating NewPipe’s existing brightness adjustment and the settings or playback controls that expose it, then determine where an optional logarithmic mode belongs. Done means users can enable the option and adjust brightness more precisely in low-light conditions without changing the default behavior.
